Become a Stenographer

Learn the New Way at Home

New Way in Shorthand, Typewriting and
Secretarial Training

A wonderful new method of teaching shorthand and typewriting
has been discovered which has completely revolutionized all old
teaching standards. No longer is it necessary to be anything less
than an expert stenographer. Instead of learning slowly,
laboriously, imperfectly and expensively, the New Way
enables you to learn quickly and perfectly at home at
very little cost, and so easily that in a few short weeks
you become more competent than many stenographers
with years of experience.

Easy to Learn-at Home!

Beginners who never could write one word in shorthand are writing 125 to 150 words a minute, and can instantly read every word of their shorthand notes. And instead of typewriting 15 to 20 words a minute with one or two fingers, they can typewrite 80 to 100 words a minute blindfolded, using ALL fingers, writing with amazing ease, and without errors!

The secret of the New Way in Shorthand is borrowed from the methods used in teaching children to read! The secret of the New Way in Typewriting is in the Special Gymnastic Finger Training which brings results in days that ordinary methods will not produce in months.

High Salaries Paid

Stenography is a profession in which large salaries are paid to those who are efficient. Many earn $25 to $50 per week. Private secretaries earn $75 to $200 per week. There is no limit to what a busy executive will pay to the man or woman who can shoulder responsibility. Begin your career by becoming a highly trained stenographer the New Way.

BY THE WAY

[graphic]

In a well-known restaurant in New York City's Chinatown tea is served at various prices, from ten to fifty cents a cup. The fifty-cent tea is called "Yos Ban Yen." A Chinese waiter in this restaurant, on being asked the reason for the high price of this particular brand, said: "Him high up on rocks. Have get monkey pick him." It would seem that the high cost of living must have affected even the monkeys' rate of

wages in China to warrant this price for a single cup of tea.

Dogs and other animals are wonderful mind-readers," says Henry C. Merwin in one of the "Atlantic Classics volumes. "I have known three cases in which some discussion about the necessity of killing an old dog, held in his presence, was quickly followed by the sudden, unaccountable disappearance of the animal.... Horses are inferior only to dogs in this capacity. Men who ride race-horses have told me that a sudden conviction in their own minds, in the course of a race, that they could not win has passed immediately to the horse and caused him to slacken his speed, although they had not ceased to urge him."

The love of dogs and other animals is a test of the moral progress of mankind, according to the writer named in the above "Not Stephenson, nor Faraday, paragraph. nor Morse, nor Fulton, nor Bell," he says, "did so much for the human race, to say nothing of the other animals, as did that dueling Irishman who, in the year 1822, proposed in the English Parliament, amid shrieks and howls of derision, what afterward became the first law for the protection of dumb animals ever placed on the statute-book of any country." The "dueling Irishman "may be identified as Richard Martin, widely known as "Humanity Martin," a name conferred on him by no less a personage than George IV, King of England.

,

"Is the expression 'an oblong square permissible?" a subscriber asks. "It is objected that the word 'square' is superfluous." As used specifically, in geometry, oblong is defined as "a long rectangle," and hence "an oblong" is sufficiently clear to the geometrical mind. But some authorities, as quoted in the Oxford English Dictionary, have used the phrase objected to, or variations of it-as, a "square oblonge (tr. of Palladius, 1420); an antient wall with towers, forming a kind of oblong square" (Dalrymple, 1777).

"Draw a picture of Plymouth Rock as you think it looked," said the teacher to the class, as reported in an educational magazine. One small boy seemed to be in difficulties. "What is the trouble?" asked the sympathetic teacher. "I can't tell which you want me to draw," was the reply-" a rooster or a hen."

The importance of local traffic to a railway system is indicated in the statement that passengers to and from stations on Long Island make up nearly three-fourths of the total number who use the great station of the Pennsylvania Railroad on Seventh Avenue in New York City. In

1917 the total number of passengers who used the terminal was 18,148,605, of whom 13,224,258 were from Long Island.

Is there a collection of Chinese proverbs? Here is a specimen which for pith and point will appeal to Americans as worthy of preservation: "A road is good for ten years and bad for ten thousand."

This proverb is quoted with approval by Mr. Ray Chapman Andrews, who conducted an expedition into farthest China for the American Museum of Natural History. Except for bad roads and bandits, however, Mr. Andrews found that travel in China met with no difficulties. "It was apparent," he says, "that throughout China there is a total lack of anti-foreign feeling in both the peasant and official classes, and except for the brigands white men travel in perfect safety anywhere in the Republic.'

can

Among strange animals found by the expedition above referred to was the goral. This is a mountain goat of great agility. "I have seen a goral," says Mr. Andrews, "run at full speed down the face of a cliff which appeared to be almost perpendicular and where the dogs dared not venture. As the animal landed on a projecting rock it would bounce off as though made of rubber, and leap eight or ten feet to a narrow ledge which did not seem large enough to support a rabbit."

Even the most careful housewife occasionally sighs for unbreakable dishes; and, whether the responsibility of a broken dish is hers or her maid's, she will sympathize with the heroine of the following skit from the Liverpool" Post:"

"Yes," replied John; what of it ?" "Well," continued the lady, "there is something here in the paper about steel plates. I don't know just what they are, but I should think they might be indestructible and the very thing we need."

Everywhere men who suddenly attain prosperity spend money foolishly. A story is told in "Commerce and Finance "illustrating the point in the case of a Southern darky who had made money as a result of the high price of cotton. He went to buy a phonograph. "How many children have you?" asked the phonograph man during the transaction. I has eight," was the "One phonograph for eight children!" exclaimed the salesman; "that will never do! You need two." And he sold them to his credulous customer.

answer.

The vigilance of the track-walkers of a railway cannot always prevent accidents from falling rocks. A recent accident on the Pennsylvania Railroad not far from Harrisburg was caused by the falling at midnight of a huge boulder weighing nearly three hundred tons from the top of a cut about seventy feet deep. It fell just as the cars were passing, being possibly dislodged by the vibration of the moving train.

The ingenuity of the limerick-maker has rarely been better shown than in the following example which a medical journal prints in its funny column, thus incidentally showing that the profession is willing to take good-naturedly a joke on itself:

There's a New Way
to Save Teeth

All Statements Approved by High Dental Authorities

[graphic]

It Ends The Film

Old methods of tooth brushing don't save the teeth, as millions of people know. They remove some part of the debris, but often leave the chief tooth destroyer.

That is why brushed teeth discolor and decay. Why tartar forms, and pyorrhea starts.. And why safety requires a periodic dental cleaning.

There forms on teeth a slimy, clinging film. You can feel it with your tongue.

It gets into crevices, hardens and stays and resists the tooth brush. The ordinary dentifrice cannot dissolve it. And that is the cause of nearly all tooth troubles.

That film absorbs stains and discolors. It hardens into tartar. It holds portions of the food which ferment and form acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth-the cause of decay.

Dentists call it bacterial plaque, because it breeds millions of germs. And they, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea.

That film is the teeth's great enemy. Brushing teeth does little good if the film is not removed.

Now a way has been found to combat that film. It is used and endorsed by many modern dentists. And to quickly bring it into genéral use we are offering a One-Week test.

Pepsodent

The New-Day Dentifrice

Sold by Druggists in Large Tubes

THE PEPSODENT CO.

Dept. 123, 1104 S. Wabash Ave., Chicago

Use It Twice Daily

This method-called Pepsodent is a dainty tooth paste. You use it like any dentifrice. But, unlike others, it contains an activated pepsin-the digestant of albumin.

The film is albuminous matter. The object of Pepsodent is to dissolve it, then to daily prevent its accumulation.

The reason why pepsin was not used before is the fact that it must be activated. The usual agent is an acid, harmful to the teeth. So pepsin long seemed forbidden.

But science has found a harmless activating method, and Pepsodent employs it. Five governments have already granted patents.

After three years of clinical tests, Pepsodent has been accepted by many high authorities. It has proved itself a marvel of efficiency. And it seems to solve this allimportant film problem.

Now we are stating the facts to millions, and are urging all to prove them by a home test.

Send the coupon for a One-Week tube. Use it like any tooth paste, then watch the results. Note how clean your teeth feel after using. Note the absence of the film. See how they whiten as the fixed film disappears.

Those results mean that Pepsodent does what old methods have not done. They mean real tooth protection. After that week you will want those results continued, we believe. Cut out the coupon now.
